Godfather of Support & Resistance
Overview
The Godfather of Support & Resistance script is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify critical support and resistance levels on their charts. These price levels are vital for understanding market behavior, as they often act as turning points where prices reverse, consolidate, or break through. By automating the detection of these levels, this script simplifies your trading decisions and enhances your technical analysis.

How It Works
Pivot Points for Level Detection:

The script uses pivot points to identify potential support (lows) and resistance (highs) levels:
A pivot high is a local peak (a high surrounded by lower highs).
A pivot low is a local trough (a low surrounded by higher lows).
You can adjust the Pivot Length (pivotLen) input to control the sensitivity of detection. Smaller values detect more levels, while larger values focus on major levels.
Dynamic Grouping with Tolerance:

The script dynamically groups nearby price levels using a tolerance percentage. This tolerance is based on the level's price, making it adaptive to all types of assets (low- and high-priced).
For example, if the tolerance is set to 1% and a level is at $100, levels within $1 are grouped together.
Touch Count for Significance:

The script tracks how many times the price interacts with each level (touch count). Only levels that meet or exceed the Minimum Touches (minTouches) input are displayed on the chart. This ensures only meaningful levels are highlighted.
Clear Visual Representation:

Resistance Levels (Red Lines): Represent areas where the price tends to reverse downward.
Support Levels (Green Lines): Represent areas where the price tends to reverse upward.
Labels are added to each level (optional) to display the price and the number of touches for better decision-making.
Inputs You Can Customize
Minimum Touches to Show Level:

Set the minimum number of price interactions required for a level to be displayed.
Maximum Lines to Keep:

Limit the number of support and resistance lines displayed to keep your chart clean and focused.
Pivot Length:

Customize the sensitivity of pivot point detection. Smaller values detect more levels, while larger values focus on key levels.
Tolerance for Touch Detection (%):

Adjust the grouping tolerance as a percentage of the price. For example, 1% groups levels that are within 1% of each other.
How to Use
Apply the Script:

Add the script to your TradingView chart, and it will automatically detect and plot support and resistance levels.
Analyze the Levels:

Use Resistance Levels (red lines) as potential sell zones or areas to place stop-loss orders above.
Use Support Levels (green lines) as potential buy zones or areas to place stop-loss orders below.
Customize for Your Trading Style:

Adjust the inputs to match your preferred strategy and the timeframe or asset you're analyzing.
Example Use Case
Imagine you're analyzing a stock:

Resistance Level: The script identifies resistance at $150 with 3 touches. This might be a potential sell zone if the price struggles to break through.
Support Level: The script identifies support at $130 with 4 touches. This might be a potential buy zone if the price shows signs of bouncing upward.
